MELVILL, Secretary. tion to this, evidence would be also adduced of the prisonef Thomas having employed a boy to go down the chimney o the prosecutor's house for the purpose of opening the street door, and letting him into the dwelling. It would be also satisfactorily proved that the prisoner had no authority whatever for carrying off the property. Henry Myers Seeley having deposed to the facts relative to the Frenchman, said he had been informed by his servant that Thomas and his groom had been seen by her remov ing the property. Thinking his servant might be mistak en with respect t o th e id en tity o f th e parties, he accompanied her to Mr. Thomas's house, and the moment she saw him she said that be was the man. Prosecutor had had a writ of action served upon him, at the suit of Thomas, since he had adopted this prosecution against him. The writ of ac tion was served the 2d of October, but no proceedings had been taken in it since. WITH WHICH THE " TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED. No. 14,433.

As it is pro hallo that on this, as on former similar occasions, the desire to par ticipate in these benefits will very largely increase the number. of proposals for Assurance which will be made to the Society previous to the closing of the books for the current year, it will greatly fa cilitate the duties of the officers of the Society, and at the various Branches throughout the country, that parties intending to propose Assurance do so with as little delay as possible, in order to prevent the inconvenience which the delaying of them till the latest possible moment at which they can be received or carried through, con sistently with the Society's regulations, has given rise to on former occasions. !en proportionally eably participate, ions to las declared Parties wishing to effect Assurances, so as beat to meet any par ticular contingency, or effect any specific object, will receive the requisite information, and have the suitable form of Proposal trans mitted to them; and all official communications of this nature are considered strictly confidential.

These four vacancies have been caused by the promotion of the former Committee, Sir Charles Pratt, K.C.B. ; Sir W. Johnson, C.B. ; Gen. Newberry, and Sir John Mean, K.C.8., to the rank of Lieut.-Generals at the Coronation Brevet. EXTRAORDINARY DRAINAGE OF THE NITH AND OF FHE CLYDE.—A correspondent informs us that on Tuesday last, whether by means of the flood being swal lowed up by some subterranean cave or crevice, or otherwise, the channel of the Nith at Enterkinefoot or Slunkford, was left so dry that a person could have walked through it without wetting his stockings. This is certainly an extra ordinary circumstance ; and we communicate it to the public just as we have got it, not by any means vouching for the particulars, which have not yet reached us.—Durn fries Times.—[The same extraordinary circumstance oc curred on Tuesday last with regard to the Clyde. About twenty miles up from Glasgow, numbers of people cros:ed the bed of the river without wetting even the soles of their shoes, and the fish were easily caught by the hand in shal low pools. So great was the depression of the water, that the machinery of New Lanark mills could not be driven.

The Presic/2.;t of course brings nothing of later date, but so extraordinary a passage has necessarily led to a great deal of remark among our commercial men. Had the Great Western been bound for London instead of Bristol, and no preparation been made by the news-agents for her arrival, it is quite possihle that the President might hare been beforehand with that vessel in the delivery of her des patches. Captain Chadwick's exertions are at all events entitled to the highest commendation. LONDONMECHANICS'INSTITUTION. Wednesday evening (the sixteenth anniversary of the laying the foundation stone of the Institution) a general meeting of 'lhe members was held in the great hall of 'the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings ; Richard Taylor, Esq., F.L.S. in the Chair. Mr. A. MTARLANE, Secretary, read the minutes of the last meeting, which having been confirmed, The CHAIRMAN said, that the last quarter's report would be submitted to the meeting ; before that was done he would congratulate the members on their having witnessed the successful completion of the fifteenth year of the Insti tution's existence.—(Cheers.) The presence that evening of many young men, who were born the year in which the foundation stone of the Institution was laid, must excite a lively interest on those old friends of the Institution, who were not only p resent at t h at ceremony, b ut h ave t h e gra tification The SECRETARYto behold it t hfleonu read rishi flourishing.—(Hear, 14s. 6d. sixteenth(}e r 9 quarterly hear. ) report ter .0 sincen ted t t h o e 47 last9l. q 9 u s a . r i t e d r . i andnc l u t d u i n e g e x a p e b n a d l t n u c r e e t o o f of the Committe e o f M anagement.

The Institution is subject to a liability of 2,5901. for building debts and library deposits. Numerous donations have been received during the quarter. The present number of students is 131, of which 75 are new ; and the total number of members and students is 1,120. Seven members' sons, and nineteen ladies, have paid for lectures or classes. The average number of members and students for the year, has been 1,112. The classes are generally well attended, and in every other respect conti nue to give unmingled satisfaction. The Report, in con clusion, stated that in commencing the sixteenth year of the Institution's existence, it must be gratifying to all, but more particularly to their revered President, Dr. Birkbeck, to know, that having overcome many difficulties, their ex ample has been successfully followed, not only in the me tropolis, but in many parts of the United Kingdom. The Report was adopted. Mr. GROVER moved a resolution to the effect that all candidates for the Committee should be members of six months' standing, and of 21 years of age. Mr. CLIFTON seconded the motion, which passed. Mr. GROVER said that rule 5, section 8, enacted that members should nominate their candidates for the Committee 21- days baloro the election. He would propose that, if at the expiration of the time for nominating the - candidates there were n't then nominated ten working, or five non working members, that the time for putting forward candi dates should be prolonged to within 14 days of the elec tion.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. SPICKETT objected to the proposed alteration. After some observations from Messrs. Howell, Grover, Collis, Spickett, and other members, Mr. Grover's proposi tion was carried ; after which he proposed some verbal alte rations in two other rules, which were approved of. Mr. CoLLIs, in reply to a question from Mr. Curry, re specting the music class, said that the principal object in tended by the Committee was to make the teachers inde pendent of the pupils , by paying the former out of the funds of the institution. The classes will be divided into four branches—the wind and string instruments, vocal and ge neral practisers. The subscription to each class will be 35., and 2s. 6d. entrance. The class has been invariably in debt, which the Committee will liquidate.--(Hear, hear.) The proposed alterat i on in the music department, and the determination of the Committee to take it under their pro tection, out of the hands of the present d rectors, excited strong remonstrances on the part of the latter, which occu pied an hour, a nd which were terminated by th e Ch a i rman deciding that the Committee had sole power over every branch connected with the Institution. Mr. GLovtx said that it was with deep regret he heard of the illness of their President s Dr. Birkbeck. He with out further remark would propose a vote expressive of their hearty s y m pathy in his present illness, and of their grati tude for his invaluable services in giving gratuitous lectures. The vote passed amidst the greatest acclamation. It was announced that the following Lectures w ill b e delivered during the present quarter :—Mr. Adams, on Mechanics ; Mr. G. F.

THE BIRMINGHAM, BRISTOL, AND THAMES JUNCTION RAILWAY AND CANAL COMPANY V. LOCKE. This was an action to recover a sum of 213/. for calls made by the Railway Company, and not duly paid up by the defendant. The defence was that the defendant had not duly become a member of the Company, and that if he ever had been a member, his shares had been forfeited, and had Leen so declared by the Directors in the manner directed by the private Act of Parliament under which the Company had been established. The evidence on the part of the plaintiff to prove that the defendant was a member of the Company, was the common evidence given in such cases. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE said that he thought enough appeared to show that the plaintiff had become a member of the Company, so far as to be liab!e to the Company for payment of these calls. On the other hand, the terms of the secretary's letter requiring payment, and declaring that a certain default would render his scrip shares forfeited, did not actually forfeit them, but merely announced what would be the consequence of a longer neglect. He did not, there fore, think that the shares had been forfeited, and lie should direct a verdict for the plaintiffs, but would give the defen dant leave to move the Court for a new trial, should his direction be deemed erroneous. Verdict for the plaintiffs —Damages 2131. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Dec. 10. DE PINNA V. CARROLL, KNT., AND ANOTHER.

The Jury retired at half-past six and returned at eight. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 2501. PREROGATIVE COURT.—DEc. 10. IN THE GOODS OF THOMAS ANDERSON. This is one of the many cases in which violation of the provisions of the new Act of Victoria has caused the inva lidity of the instrument. The deceased being extremely ill on the 25th of April of the present year, and very de sirous of making a testamentary disposition of his pro perty, sent for a solicitor, who sat up during the whale of the night to finish the drawing of the will. The docu ment having been prepared, received the signature of the testator. The attesting witnesses, however, were taken by the solicitor into another room, to prevent, as he thought, the unnecessary agitation of the deceased by their signing their names in his presence. The COURT could not pronounce for a paper not attested in the presence of the deceased, as that was declared by the 9th section of the Act to be strictly necessary, not withstanding the accuracy of the attestation clause which had been carefully drawn out for the express purpose of complying with the provisions of the Act, but which, through inadvertency, had not been obeyed. WOOD AND OTIIEItS U. GOODLAKE, HELPS, AND OTHERS. This important cause came on for hearing this day. It is a matter of proving, in solemn form of law, two papers propounded as containing the last will and testament of the late James Wood, Esq., the banker, of Westgate-street, in the city of Gloucester. The papers are dated the 2d and 3d of September, 1834, and are brought into the Court by the executors and residuary legatees named therein, viz., by Sir Matthew Wood, Bart., Mr. Cliadborn, Mr. Jacob Oiihorne, and Mr:: John Surman, against Mrs. Elizabeth Goodlake, widow, lawful second cousin and next of kin of the deceased, against the Corporation of the city of Glou cester ; T. Helps, Esq., Mr. John Philpotts, Mr. Samuel Wood, Mr. Thomas Wood, and the other legatees named in a codicil which is also propounded as containing the last will of the testator, and which was sent to Mr. Helps, at his house, in Bakham Hill, through the medium of the threepenny post ; and also against Mr. Edward Hitchings, who claims telationship to the deceased, alleging that he is a lawful second cousin, and next of kin, and who has been admitted as contradictor to the will. Her Majesty's ADVOCATE opened the proceedings. Dr. BURNABY, as coun se l f or th e l ega t ees named in the codicil of July, 1835, thought it sufficient at the present stage of the cause to put a direct negative on every one of the propositions offered by her Majesty's Advocate. Dr. ADDAMS, for the executors of the papers of 1834, said that he had no objection to take the question, be tween his party and the next of kin, as a preliminary ar gument. The Learned JUDGE said that the whole case must be heard together. It was impossible to hear it by piecemeal. All the facts were so blended together, that justice could not be done to the parties unless this course were adopted. Dr. PHILLIMORE, on behalf of Mrs. Goodlake, said that the Court would sec the deep interest which his party had in the result of the present proceedings. Dr. CURTIES, for Mr. Hitchings, would contend that under the circumstances there was net sufficient proof that the papers (A and 13.) together contained the will of the deceased, and that the latter being " instructions" for a will, parole evidence to connect it with the former, was in admissible ; that if the Court did not go with him in that point, that the papers drawn by a confidential solicitor, materially in his own favour,and assisted by three persons un der his influence, must be pronounced against. He was of opinion with respect to the codicil, without attributing guilt to the parties producing it, that there was a failure of proof, and that it could net be pronounced for. Her Majesty's ADVOCATE then commenced his argu ments on behalf of the executors of the papers of Septem ber, 1834, and did not conclude till the rising of the Court. Dr. ADDAM S will be heard on the same side on the next sitting of the Court on Thursday. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Dze. 10. IN RE SMITH. This person had been some time in Monmouth Gaol at the suit of one creditor, whose debt he had declared he would never pay, He had ample means, and the creditor had under the compulsory clause obtained a vesting order. The application was now for the assigneeship, which was granted. IN THE MATTER OF EDWARD GIBBS. The insolvent had been discharged on bail until his bear ing ; he was, however, soon afterwards taken on a Court of Requests judgment, and had remained in prison. It should be known that the bail clause protects a person from all executions, but the insolvent had taken no notice of the circumstance, and had remained in prison. The COURT told him he should have applied for as sistance.—He was discharged. SURREY SESSIONS. EXTRAORDINARY CASE.-=Yesterday Frederick Nicholas Somers Thomas, surgeon, residing in the Grove, Camberwell, and William Boys, his groom, were indicted for stealing eight mahogany chairs, a table, some spoons, and several other articles, the proporty of Henry Myers Seeley, of the Com mercial-road. The trial of the prisoners, which excited a considerable degree of interest, owing to the apparent re spectability of Thomas since his residence at Camberwell, lasted nearly the whole day. Mr. CHAMBERS, on the part of the prosecution, said that it was instituted for the purpose of punishing par ties for a very extraordinary and audacious robbery. .The prosecutor was a highly respectable man, living in the Commercial-road, Cambe rwe ll , and, some time since, he entered into a speculation with a French man, named Detour, for carrying on a chocolate manu factory. For this purpose, the prosecutor placed the Frenchman in a house at Camberwell, which he furnished, and he was to superintend the manufactory of the article already named. Prosecutor having had occasion to visit the Continent in the month of September, on his return he found that the Frenchman had absconded, and the house which he inhabited was completely putted, all the furniture, bedding, crockery, pots, pans, and kettles being taken away. In the course of the prosecutor's inquiries on the subject, he ascertained that the prisoner Thomas and h isgroom n were seen i n th e act of leaving d been g Louse which had robbed, with ma h ogany chairs in their posses,ion,ln The CHAIRMAN summed up, commenting upon the evi dence, particularly on that given by one of the witnesses called for the defence, who at first said that she knew Dr. Thomas to be one of the men whom she saw carrying off the furniture, and that she had seen him driving a piebald horse. Now, it was known that Dr. Thomas was in the habit of driv ing such an animal, and the same witness afterwards comes forward and says that he is not the man. There was some thing very extraordinary in Thomas's sending the sweep down the chimney, and it does not at all appear that the boy had any possible motive for misrepresenting the fact. On the part of the prosecutor it appeared that the Frenchman had the key of the house from which the furniture was stolen. And be might have entered into negotiation with the prisoner about the removal of the property. There was another extraordinary circumstance, that of finding sixty pawnbrokers' duplicates on the doctor. It would be the duty of the Jury to contrast the el idence for and against the accused parties, and if they had a doubt, to give the prisoners the benefit of it. For a professional man it was also a matter of some surprise that the doctor moved about from place to place in the manner he did. The Jury consulted for a short time, and returned a ver dict of Guilty against both the prisoners. The prisoner Thomas exclaimed, " Surely the Jury have made a mistake ! I could have brought 500 witnesses to character—why this is most extraordinary." Here an elderly respectable looking man pressed forward, and, addressing the Court, said, pointing to the prisoner Thomas—" That man is a swindler : he contrived to take away a sister of mine, and got hold of her property, amount ing to between 400/. and 500/." Prisoner—l deny the accusation. I was her executor. Thii is a most infamous conspiracy against me ; my mother is a lady in her ()en right ; the papers in the possession of the policeman will show that the transaction now alleged against me was unfounded. The sentence was, that the prisoner Thomas be imprisoned for twelve calendar months in Brixton Gaol, to hard labour, and the other prisoner Boys for three months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-ISO USE. A poor-looking object, named Jordan, who appeared to be imbecile, was brought before the LORD MAYOR by Mr. Campbell. The unfortunate man had been found soliciting for charity. Mr. Campbell said he did not come to charge the poor creature with the offence of vagrancy, of which be had, strictly speaking, been guilty, but to prevent him from pe rishing in the street. Alderman PIRIE, who sat for the Lord Mayor, asked whether the parish had been applied to? Mr. Campbell said (as the reporter understood him) that there was no relief to he obtained at the City house, in Can non-street, to which destitute persons had been recently re ferred, but the name of the relieving officer was given. The assistance, however, to be obtained under such circumstances was but trifling indeed, and here was an object of great com passion, who must parish if left to shift for himself. Alderman PIRIE-It goes against my feelings to send such an unfortunate, helpless creature as this to Bridewell, but I have no alternative. But he shall be taken good care of there. The poor man was then removed to Bridewell, under particular directions. The two female children of a woman named Maria Burcher were brought up for begging. A policeman stated that on Saturday, at five o'clock in the evening, he saw the two poor children half naked and shivering on the steps leading to London-bridge. He took them to the station-house, and found in their pockets eight pence halfpenny. Their mother, who was up to all the tricks of vagrancy, was, the officer said, in the justice-room. The mother—Oh, my Lord, I know nothing of what they do. I goes out to wash a little, and as I have no thing to give them I suppose they go to look for some. Alderman PIRIE—What a wretch you must be send out these poor infants in such dreadful weather. The little girls said that their mother sent their little brother to another part of the town to stand for charity. The mother—l won't do it again, my Lord, if you let rhe go no*. Mr. Pewtress said that at the Union the children were known to be - professed beggars, and that the police were obliged to bring them before the Magistrate. The mother—But we won't do so again, I tell you. Committed to Bridewell, the children under special di rections. BO TV. STREET. John Hannon, who is charged with causing to be en graved, and having in his possession, a plate of a note of the Toronto Bank, value ten dollars, and also with causing to be made a stamp to resemble the signatures of the Pre sident and cashier of the bank, was yesterday brought up for further examination. After an inculpatory statement of Mr. Bush, the soli.. citor for the Society for the Prevention of Frauds and Forgeries, Mr. Wooler said that there was not sufficient evidence to warrant the Magistrate in committing the prisoner. Ultimately the prisoner was remanded till Wednesday (to-morrow). A person named Sullivan was brought here, charged by police constable with being destitute and walking in the streets during the night. Atterel, the constable of the Strand Union workhouse, deposed that the defendant was brought to the workhouse by the officer, and provided with supper, but on being slsown into the sleeping-room provided for the destitute poor, he refused to go to bed, and became very violent, using im proper language towards those who had supplied him with supper, and declaring that the bed was not fit for him to sleep upon. Mr. Kirby, the relieving officer, stated that since the practice of bringing the houseless poor to the workhouse, before taking them before the Magistrate, had been adopted, the streets were almost cleared of beggars, and if the same admirable regulation were to be followed throughout the metropolis it would be attended with the most benefical results, particularly during the winter. The defendant was then sent to prison for a month, and, at the expiration of that time, he will be passed to the parish to which he belongs. Mr. Inspector Musgrave stated that the police had re ceived instructions to convey all destitute persons in the first instance to the workhouse, instead of the station-house. HA7'TON-GARDEN. An elderly woman was brought up by a policeman, charged with being drunk. The prisoner, on being called upon for her defence, affected to be deaf and dumb, and made peculiar motions in order to convince Mr. BENETT of her affliction. Mr. BENETT said she should not impose upon him, and ordered her to be locked up. She was eventually brought up again when she indulged again in the same pantomimic gestures, and made such faces at his Worship that the whole of the Court gave vent to immoderate laughter, whilst the prisoner preserved her gravity. Mr: BENETT ordered her to pay 35., and on being taken from the bar, Waddington inquired whither she had the money, to which she replied " No." The sudden recovery of her speech excited the risibility of those present. MARY LEB 0 E. Yesterday Mr. Macguire, of Marylebone, appeared be fore the sitting M ag i s t ra t es , on t h e c h arge o f h a ving created a disturbance, and obstructing the police in the execution of their duty. The charge haring been satisfactorily e stablished against Mr. Macguire, h e was requ i re d to, and did, enter into re cognizances, after which he was discharged. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday John Nore, a street hawker of fruit, w as placed at the bar, before Mr. Broughton, charged with sel ling fruit on Sundayaticrnoon, and with being insolent to a street inspector of Shoreditch parish, of the name of Smith. Mr. littountiroN having heard the prisoner's statement, as well as that made by Smith, told the latter that he con sidered he bad acted in a very harsh and arbitrary manner towards the prisoner, whom he directed to be discharged, and to have his basket of fruit restored to him. LODGERS IN PUBLIC HOUSES.-At the Croydon Petty Sessions yesterday, a charge was preferred against a retailer of beer, that some men were seen sittinc , in his tap room during the hours of dkine service. Complainant said. they were lodgers ; but the Bench decided that lodgers had no more business in his tap-room at such a time than stran gers bad, and fined him 40s. and costs.—[On Saturday, at Boa-street, the Magistrates of that Office dismissed a similar case, deciding that a publican permitting lodgers to remain in his tap-room during the liours of diving service, was not an offence at law.] No. U, HALF MOON-STREET, PICCADILIN, And 32, GREAT RUSSELL.STREEI', BLOOMSBURY, MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM "4-T- FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH 1 . 6 " LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, AND LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED.
